True Madness or Fake Madness?
In truth, Ye Xuan was genuinely mad at this moment!
But as Little Pagoda had said, though he was mad, there was still a streak of cunning in his bones—a pure instinct that persisted even in his insanity!
At that moment, the blood-red divine lightning in the sky grew increasingly oppressive, its power reaching a despair-inducing intensity!
The Law power of a No-Boundary Realm expert!
Even after countless millennia, it remained overwhelmingly formidable!
That was the might of a No-Boundary Realm powerhouse!
On the battlefield, Xiao Xiao and the others gazed at the crimson lightning, their eyes filled with both fear and a hint of yearning!
Their lifelong pursuit was to reach the No-Boundary Realm!
Suddenly, Xiao Xiao glanced at Ye Xuan in the distance. He stood motionless, yet his aura continued to surge wildly, as if it had no ceiling!
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao’s expression darkened!
Could this guy’s bloodline power truly have no backlash?
Beside him, Zong Shou said gravely, “This man’s bloodline power… it’s terrifying! He’s no ordinary person!”
Xiao Xiao’s face was cold. “I know he’s not ordinary—so what? Do we have any way out now?”
Zong Shou fell silent!
In truth, they’d long since run out of options!
Their only chance now was to go all in!
With that thought, Zong Shou asked, “What do we do now?”
Xiao Xiao looked up at the Law power, then said, “Wait for it to dissipate!”
Zong Shou was about to respond when the sky’s divine lightning suddenly poured down!
Its targets: everyone on the field, including Ye Xuan!
Everyone who’d attacked earlier!
The sight sent a wave of panic through them all!
Xiao Xiao roared, “Retreat first!”
With that, he led the group in a frantic escape!
Ye Xuan was fleeing too!
But the lightning pursued them like it had a mind of its own, and it was fast!
Seeing this, the No-Path Realm experts scattered in terror, fleeing for their lives.
Ye Xuan ran faster, but a bolt of blood-red lightning caught up. He spun around, the Qingxuan Sword morphing into a shield before him!
*Boom!*
The lightning struck the sword, making it tremble violently!
*Boom!*
Ye Xuan, shield and all, was blasted tens of thousands of meters away. As he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his body cracking—but the sword-shield held intact!
Then, he looked up. The bolt hadn’t dissipated—it was coming for him again!
A feral glint flashed in his eyes. He opened his palm, the Qingxuan Sword reappearing. With a fierce charge, he slashed down!
*Rip!*
A crimson sword light cleaved straight at the lightning!
*Boom!*
The sword light shattered, and Ye Xuan was hurled dozens of meters back, plummeting into a spatial abyss!
As he entered, countless terrifying forces surged toward him like a tidal wave, threatening to engulf him. Ye Xuan didn’t dodge—he let them swallow him whole!
*Boom!*
The spatial abyss roiled, but Ye Xuan emerged unscathed!
Meanwhile, the blood-red lightning didn’t follow. It lingered outside, gradually fading as it lost his presence!
Once it vanished, Ye Xuan shot out…
On the other side, Xiao Xiao’s group had also weathered the storm!
But they’d lost over half their numbers!
The corpse generals—wiped out completely!
Completely annihilated!
In the final crisis, Xiao Xiao had ordered them to shield the front. He’d had no choice—if he hadn’t, he might’ve died himself!
Yun Realm suffered heavy losses too—over half gone. Of the Yun Divine Generals, only two remained!
From thirty-nine No-Path Realm experts, they were down to fewer than ten!
Xiao Xiao’s face was ashen with fury.
Zong Shou’s expression was deathly pale. “We’re finished!”
Xiao Xiao snarled, “Kill that Ye Xuan!”
Zong Shou roared, “With what?!”
Xiao Xiao said, “You think he could withstand that divine lightning?”
Zong Shou frowned slightly.
Xiao Xiao’s fists clenched tight. “That lightning was left by Jun Daolin, infused with Law power so strong even peak No-Path Realm experts can’t endure it. He—”
His voice cut off as, not far ahead, an Enforcement Sect expert’s head slowly fell!
Everyone’s faces twisted in shock!
Then, someone appeared before them!
It was Ye Xuan—perfectly fine!
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao lost it. “You… how could you possibly…!”
Ye Xuan vanished.
*Rip!*
A blood-red sword light flashed across the field like a thunderbolt!
Xiao Xiao’s pupils shrank. He didn’t retreat—he charged forward, slamming a fist at Ye Xuan’s sword!
A head-on clash!
The moment fist met sword—
*Boom!*
An earth-shaking explosion rang out as both were thrown back. When Xiao Xiao stopped, his entire right arm had turned to nothingness!
Seeing this, Zong Shou and the others’ faces grew even grimmer!
Xiao Xiao roared, “What are you all staring at? Fight him to the death!”
At his words, they snapped to attention. Zong Shou’s eyes flashed with ferocity. “Kill!”
With that, they all rushed at Ye Xuan!
At this point, they threw caution to the wind!
It was kill or be killed!
All or nothing!
But then, Ye Xuan suddenly turned and bolted, vanishing at the sky’s edge in an instant, leaving only a sea of blood behind!
The group froze.
He’d run?
Run?!
He wasn’t fighting?
Zong Shou and the others felt suffocated, like they’d swung a punch into cotton!
Just then, a blood-red sword light streaked through the field.
*Rip!*
A No-Path Realm expert’s head flew off, blood spraying meters away!
Their faces paled!
They turned, but at the distant horizon, a crimson sword light vanished.
Hit and run!
The remaining No-Path Realm experts’ expressions hit rock bottom. But more than that, fear gripped them!
For the first time, they were truly terrified!
At the start, Ye Xuan could barely fight one No-Path Realm expert. Now, he was one-shotting them!
And his aura was still surging!
If this continued, he might even kill Half-Step No-Boundary experts!
The thought made their faces darken further!
Xiao Xiao growled, “He’ll come back—”
Mid-sentence, a sword light appeared.
Everyone’s faces changed!
Zong Shou spun around, clapping his hands together.
*Boom!*
He caught the sword between his palms—but the next moment, his hands shattered. As they did, the nearby experts struck together!
*Boom!*
A figure was blasted thousands of meters away!
It was Ye Xuan!
After being flung back, he turned and vanished at the horizon again!
He’d run again!
Zong Shou’s face turned liver-purple with rage.
The field fell into dead silence!
What now?
No one wanted to face that question, but they had no way to deal with Ye Xuan anymore!
His sword was unstoppable!
Zong Shou turned to Xiao Xiao. “Think of something!”
All eyes fell on Xiao Xiao.
After a long silence, he looked at Zong Shou. “Can you still summon your ancestor?”
Zong Shou said gravely, “I can! But I’m worried…”
Xiao Xiao shook his head. “We’re out of options! Only an ancestor—a Half-Step No-Boundary expert—can suppress him. Otherwise, he’ll wear us down to nothing!”
A nearby No-Path Realm expert suddenly asked, “He really won’t face backlash?”
The question sank their moods further!
Backlash!
It had been ages since the fight began, yet Ye Xuan showed no signs of backlash. On the contrary, he was getting fiercer!
Xiao Xiao stayed silent.
Truth be told, he couldn’t figure it out either. Ye Xuan had fought this long with no backlash—his strength had multiplied countless times!
What kind of bloodline was this?
And what disgusted him most was that, despite acting like a madman, Ye Xuan wasn’t mad at all!
Zong Shou suddenly opened his palm, revealing a token. It floated up, turning into a wisp of green smoke that vanished at the horizon.
*Boom!*
A shadowy figure appeared in the sky, gradually solidifying. Soon, a middle-aged man stood before them!
Seeing him, Zong Shou and the others bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Grandmaster!”
Yun Realm’s founder: Yun Mengzi!
At his peak, a Half-Step No-Boundary expert. Though just a half-step, it was still terrifying!
The gap between No-Path and Half-Step No-Boundary was a chasm!
Yun Mengzi looked down at Zong Shou, his face expressionless. “What’s this about?”
Zong Shou bowed again and recounted everything.
When he finished, Yun Mengzi’s eyes narrowed. “This Ye Xuan carries Adaoling’s inheritance?”
Zong Shou quickly confirmed, “Exactly!”
Yun Mengzi’s lips curled slightly. “Interesting, very interesting! To bear Adaoling’s inheritance… and this Adaoling…”
A flicker of resentment crossed his eyes. “I never imagined someone in later generations could reach the No-Boundary Realm!”
Zong Shou and the others stayed silent.
Yun Mengzi glanced into the distance. “Still hiding?”
His right hand reached out, grasping at the air thousands of meters away. The space-time there twisted, and a blood-red sword light shot off!
Seeing this, Yun Mengzi smirked disdainfully. “Trying to flee from me?”
With that, he stepped forward…
